- the storage 26 also includes four circumferential walls 33 , which extend from the opening to the bottom of the inlet/outlet recess 32 so as to define a rectangular space therebetween, a plurality of flanges 34 forming engagement portions, which project inwardly from the lower ends of the circumferential walls 33 , a plurality of lock elements 36 forming engagement portions lying along two circumferential walls 33 , which are opposite to each other in the inlet/outlet recess 32 in plan view (see FIG. 3 ), and a plurality of positioning projections 37 , which are positioned along the other two circumferential walls in the inlet/outlet recess 32 .

- the positioning projections 37 are positioned in such a way that, when the chip tray 11 is stored in the storage 26 , the positioning projections 37 are received inside of the recesses 22 of the chip tray 11 . Therefore, even when the chip tray 11 is rotated in a circumferential direction by 90° from the prescribed position shown in FIG. 3 and is pushed into the storage 26 , the positioning projections 37 interfere with the peripheral areas 17 A of the main components 17 of the chip tray 11 , thus inhibiting the chip tray 11 from being inserted into the storage 26 .
- the chip tray 11 should be stored in the storage 26 of the storage tray 12 in such a way that the positioning projections 37 do not interfere with the peripheral areas 17 A, wherein the chip tray 11 is precisely positioned inside of the storage 26 at the prescribed position (at which the tapered corner K is positioned as shown in FIG. 3 ) or at another position (at which the chip tray 11 is rotated by 180° in comparison with the illustration of FIG. 3 ).

This guarantees a stable storage condition. In addition, even when only the upper unit 14 is held in the storage 26 , it is possible to reliably establish the engagement between the upper unit 14 and the small projections 40 of the lock elements 36 , thus preventing the vertical movement of the upper unit 14 .

Abstract
A housing is formed in such a way that a plurality of chip trays each holding a plurality of semiconductor chips are stored in a storage tray, wherein the chip tray is formed by vertically connecting an upper unit and a lower unit, both of which have the same structure. The semiconductor chips are held between the upper unit and the lower unit of the chip tray, thus preventing two-dimensional movement thereof. When a plurality of housings each having the aforementioned structure are vertically combined together, a plurality of semiconductor chips can be further held between the upper unit of one housing and the lower unit of another housing. This makes it possible to simultaneously transport numerous semiconductor chips, whereby the semiconductor chips are each encapsulated in a surface mount chip package.
Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to housings for holding electronic components such as semiconductor chips therein.
- This application claims priority on Japanese Patent Application No. 2006-771, the content of which is incorporated herein by reference.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- Conventionally, various types of housings have been used to hold and transport electronic components such as semiconductor chips. A typical example of the conventionally-known housing is designed to include a plurality of chip trays, each of which holds a plurality of semiconductor chips, and a storage tray, which is larger than the chip tray in size and thickness so as to store the semiconductor chips. The storage tray has a plurality of pockets whose upper ends are opened and which store the chip trays. A plurality of projections are formed on the upper surface of the chip tray so as to define a plurality of areas, on which a plurality of semiconductor chips are held in such a way that they are tightly held and surrounded by the projections and are prevented from being moved in two-dimensional directions. The chip trays each holding plural semiconductor chips are stored in the pockets of the storage tray; then, the storage tray is transported. This makes it possible to simultaneously transport the plural chip trays.
- In the above, semiconductor chips are each simply mounted on the upper surface of the chip tray. If the housing rattles during transportation, semiconductor chips may be dislodged in position so as to cause positional deviations or inclinations thereof. This causes an undesirable storage condition for semiconductor chips.
- It is an object of the present invention to provide a housing that can hold semiconductor chips in a stable manner by preventing unexpected movement of semiconductor chips during transportation.
- A housing of the present invention includes at least one chip tray for holding a plurality of semiconductor chips, and a storage tray for storing the chip tray, wherein the chip tray is formed by vertically connecting an upper unit and a lower unit, between which the semiconductor chips are held. The chip tray is shaped in an appropriate size and is completely held inside of the storage tray within its thickness. In addition, the storage tray has a plurality of engagement portions, which realize engagement with the chip tray and which maintain the vertically connected state of the upper unit and the lower unit. Both of the upper unit and the lower unit have the same structure, so that the lower unit can be covered with the upper unit.
- In the above, when the housing is vertically combined with another housing, a plurality of semiconductor chips are further held between the upper unit of the housing and the lower unit of the other housing. Incidentally, the semiconductor chips are each encapsulated in a surface mount package.
- As described above, the present invention allows plural chip trays stored in the storage tray to be simultaneously transported, wherein a plurality of semiconductor chips are held between the upper unit and the lower unit of the chip tray. This prevents the semiconductor chips from being dislodged in position during transportation; hence, even when the housing rattles during transportation, it is possible to prevent positional shifts of the semiconductor chips, thus maintaining a stable storage condition for the semiconductor chips.
- Since the chip tray is shaped in an appropriate size, which can be completely stored inside of the storage tray within its thickness, it is possible to prevent the total thickness of the housing from being increased when the chip trays are stored in the storage tray; that is, it is possible to realize a compact size with respect to the housing. In particular, when a plurality of housings are vertically combined together, it is possible to reduce the total space required for transportation of the housings.
- Due to the provision of the engagement portions having elasticity, it is possible to detachably attach the chip tray to the storage tray. This prevents the chip tray from being unexpectedly separated from the storage tray; and this also maintains the vertically connected state between the upper unit and the lower unit. That is, it is possible to stabilize the stored condition of the semiconductor chips by means of the chip tray and the storage tray.
- Since both of the upper unit and the lower unit have the same structure, it is possible to utilize a common design with respect to constituent parts thereof. This reduces the number of different parts required for the upper and lower units.
- When a plurality of housings each having the aforementioned structure are vertically combined together, a plurality of semiconductor chips can be further held between the upper unit of one housing and the lower unit of another housing. This increases the total number of semiconductor chips subjected to simultaneous transportation. Incidentally, the semiconductor chips are each encapsulated in a surface mount chip package, for example.

housing 10 includes a plurality ofchip trays 11, each of which holds a plurality of chips C, and astorage tray 12 for holding thechip trays 11. The present embodiment does not specifically define the type of the chip C; however, the drawings show that the chips C are encapsulated in surface mount chip packages such as BGA (ball grid array) packages and CSP (chip scale packaging), wherein each chip C has a two-dimensional square shape in which a plurality of terminals are arranged along one side thereof, for example. - As shown in
FIGS. 4A and 4B , thechip tray 11 is formed by anupper unit 14 and alower unit 15, which can be combined together. Both of theupper unit 14 and thelower unit 15 are formed using the same tray member of the same structure, which allows the chips C to be mounted thereon. For this reason, the following description is given mainly with respect to theupper unit 14, wherein parts identical to those of theupper unit 14 are designated by the same reference numerals; hence, the detailed description thereof will be omitted as necessary. - The
upper unit 14 is formed using an integrally molded member composed of a resin. As shown inFIG. 3 ,FIGS. 4A-4C ,FIGS. 5 and 6 , andFIGS. 7A-7C , theupper unit 14 includes amain component 17 having a square shape in plan view, a plurality offirst projections 18, each of which has a rectangular shape in plan view, which project upwardly from the surface of themain component 17, and which are arranged in a two-dimensional manner with a prescribed spacing therebetween (seeFIG. 3 ), a plurality ofsecond projections 19, each of which has a cross shape in plan view and which project downwardly from the backside of the main component 17 (seeFIG. 5 ), and a plurality ofsquare ribs 20, each of which has a square shape in plan view and which project downwardly from the periphery of the backside of themain component 17. - As shown in
FIGS. 7A and 7B , aperipheral area 17A of themain component 17 is lowered by astep portion 17B in comparison with the other area of themain component 17. A plurality ofrecesses 22 are formed at prescribed positions in both of the right and left sides and in both of the upper and lower sides (seeFIGS. 3 and 5 ). Among four corners of themain component 17, one corner K (i.e., a lower-left corner inFIG. 3 ) has a tapered shape, which allows an operator or worker to recognize the circumferential direction of theupper unit 14. - The
first projections 18 are arranged on the surface of themain component 17 in a two-dimensional manner so as to arrange the chips C with a prescribed spacing therebetween, so that fourfirst projections 18 are positioned along four sides of each chip C. That is, each single chip C is held in a chip keeping area defined by fourfirst projections 18, which are positioned adjacently to each other, thus preventing two-dimensional movement of the chip C. - As shown in
FIG. 5 , thesecond projections 19 are arranged on the backside of themain component 17 in a two-dimensional manner with a prescribed spacing therebetween. Specifically, eachsecond projection 19 having a cross shape is positioned on the backside of the chip holding area for holding each chip C on the surface of themain component 17. As shown inFIG. 7A , a height h1 of thesecond projection 19, which projects downwardly from the backside of themain component 17, is smaller than a height h2 of thefirst projection 18, which projects upwardly from the surface of themain component 17. - The
lower unit 15 is formed similar to theupper unit 14; that is, as shown inFIG. 7B , a plurality offirst projections 18 are formed on the surface of themain component 17, and a plurality ofsecond projections 19 are formed on the backside of themain component 17. - When the
upper unit 14 and thelower unit 15 are vertically combined together as shown inFIG. 6 , the tip ends of thefirst projections 18 of thelower unit 15 come in contact with the backside of themain component 17 of theupper unit 14; and the tip ends of thesecond projections 19 of theupper unit 14 come in contact with the surface of themain component 17 of thelower unit 15. This makes it possible to securely hold the chips C by means of thefirst projections 18 and thesecond projections 19 between theupper unit 14 and thelower unit 15. - The
square ribs 20 project downwardly from the periphery of the backside of themain component 17 in such a way that the inner sides thereof are positioned slightly outwardly of thestep portions 17B. That is, when theupper unit 14 and thelower unit 15 are vertically combined together, thesquare ribs 20 of theupper unit 14 engage with thestep portions 17B and thefirst projections 18, which are positioned adjacent to thestep portions 17B. This makes it possible to reliably connect theupper unit 14 and thelower unit 15 together. - No special limitation is imposed on the structure of the
storage tray 12; however, the present embodiment is designed such that thestorage tray 12 is formed as an integrally molded member composed of an appropriate resin such as ABS resin. As shown inFIG. 8 , thestorage tray 12 includes atray 24 having an elongated rectangular shape, an absorption portion formed at the center of thetray 24, eight storages 26 (i.e., four storage spaces formed in the left side, and four storage spaces formed in the right side) for storing thechip trays 11 respectively, and aframe 27 formed in the periphery of thetray 24. - The
absorption portion 25 is a planar surface surrounded by a frame-shapedrib 29 defining a square area and is subjected to absorption by means of an absorption grid, which is used for the transportation of thehousing 10. The upper ends of the frame-shapedrib 29 are positioned substantially in the same plane as the upper surface of thetray 24, whereby theabsorption portion 25 is positioned below and in parallel with the upper surface of thetray 24. In addition, a plurality ofgrid ribs 30 whose heights are identical to the height of the frame-shapedrib 29 are formed in the surrounding areas of the frame-shapedrib 29. - As shown in
FIG. 4C , thestorage 26 includes an inlet/outlet recess 32 having a rectangular shape, which is slightly larger than theupper unit 14. This allows thechip tray 11 to be attached to or detached from thestorage 26 by way of an opening of the inlet/outlet recess 32. Thestorage 26 also includes fourcircumferential walls 33, which extend from the opening to the bottom of the inlet/outlet recess 32 so as to define a rectangular space therebetween, a plurality offlanges 34 forming engagement portions, which project inwardly from the lower ends of thecircumferential walls 33, a plurality oflock elements 36 forming engagement portions lying along twocircumferential walls 33, which are opposite to each other in the inlet/outlet recess 32 in plan view (seeFIG. 3 ), and a plurality ofpositioning projections 37, which are positioned along the other two circumferential walls in the inlet/outlet recess 32. Herein, the inside of theflange 34 is opened. - A plurality of
cutouts 38 are formed along the other twocircumferential walls 33 in connection with thelock elements 36. As shown inFIG. 4C , each of thecutouts 38 is elongated vertically from the upper surface of thetray 24 to theflange 34 and is shaped in an appropriate size embracing thelock element 36 therein. - As shown in
FIG. 9C , thelock elements 36 are arranged inside of thecutouts 38. As shown inFIG. 6 andFIG. 7C , thelock elements 36 are each placed in a vertically standing position, whereinsmall projections 40, which project inwardly into the space of the inlet/outlet recess 32, are formed at the upper ends of thelock elements 36. Thesmall projections 40 are each formed in a semi-circular shape in a cross-section thereof; hence, when thechip tray 11 is stored in thestorage 26, thesmall projections 40 engage with the outer periphery of themain component 17 of theupper unit 14. A plurality ofinterconnection elements 41 horizontally extend from the lower ends of thelock elements 36 and are interconnected to the interior surfaces of thecutouts 38. Herein, the upper portions of thelock elements 36 can slightly move due to the elastic deformation of theinterconnection elements 41 and due to the elastic deformation of thelock elements 36. - Two pairs of
positioning projections 37 are positioned along each of the twocircumferential walls 33 of the inlet/outlet recess 32. Thepositioning projections 37 are positioned in such a way that, when thechip tray 11 is stored in thestorage 26, thepositioning projections 37 are received inside of therecesses 22 of thechip tray 11. Therefore, even when thechip tray 11 is rotated in a circumferential direction by 90° from the prescribed position shown inFIG. 3 and is pushed into thestorage 26, thepositioning projections 37 interfere with theperipheral areas 17A of themain components 17 of thechip tray 11, thus inhibiting thechip tray 11 from being inserted into thestorage 26. That is, thechip tray 11 should be stored in thestorage 26 of thestorage tray 12 in such a way that thepositioning projections 37 do not interfere with theperipheral areas 17A, wherein thechip tray 11 is precisely positioned inside of thestorage 26 at the prescribed position (at which the tapered corner K is positioned as shown inFIG. 3 ) or at another position (at which thechip tray 11 is rotated by 180° in comparison with the illustration ofFIG. 3 ). - As shown in
FIG. 6 , the depth of thestorage 26 is determined in such a way that the chip tray 11 (in which theupper unit 14 and thelower unit 15 are vertically connected together) is completely stored inside of thestorage 26 within the thickness of thestorage tray 12. In the state shown inFIG. 6 , the tip ends of thefirst projections 18 of theupper unit 14 are positioned substantially in the same plane as the surface of thetray 24, and the tip ends of thesquare ribs 20 of thelower unit 15 are positioned above the lower portion of theframe 27 and do not extend outwardly from theframe 27. - The
frame 27 is elongated downwardly from the periphery of thetray 24, and astep portion 27A whose height is lower than the height of the upper surface of thetray 24 is formed on the upper end of theframe 27. When a plurality ofhousings 10 are vertically combined together as shown inFIG. 10 , the lower end of theframe 27 of thestorage tray 12 of onehousing 10 is mounted on thestep portion 27A of theframe 27 of thestorage tray 12 of theother housing 10. As shown inFIG. 2 in view ofFIG. 1 , a pair ofrecesses 43 whose openings are directed downwardly are formed on the backside of theframe 27. In addition, a pair ofhooks 44 are interconnected to both sides of theframe 27. - In order to store the chips C in the
housing 10, each chip C is mounted on themain component 17 of thelower unit 15 in such a way that the four sides thereof are positioned opposite to the corresponding fourfirst projections 18 of thelower unit 15. Next, theupper unit 14 and thelower unit 15 are vertically connected together in such a way that thestep portion 17B and thefirst projections 18 lying along thestep portion 17B of thelower unit 15 are engaged with thesquare ribs 20 of theupper unit 14. Thus, thesecond projections 19 of theupper unit 14 are precisely positioned just above the chips C stored in thelower unit 15. This prevents the chips C from being dislodged in position; that is, thelower unit 15 is covered with and closed by theupper unit 14. The chip tray 11 (consisting of theupper unit 14 and thelower unit 15 including the chips C) is precisely located in such a way that thepositioning projections 37 of thestorage 26 of thestorage tray 12 are received in therecesses 22 of theupper unit 14 and thelower unit 15; then, thechip tray 11 is pushed into thestorage 26. At this time, theperipheral areas 17A of theupper unit 14 and thelower unit 15 slide along thesmall projections 40 of thelock elements 36 of thestorage 26 so that thelock elements 36 are slightly inclined outwardly due to the elasticity thereof. When the lower surface of theperipheral area 17A of thelower unit 15 is mounted on and comes in contact with theflanges 34 of thestorage 26, thelock elements 36 are restored at the initial position, so that thesmall projections 40 of thelock elements 36 are engaged with the upper surface of theperipheral area 17A of theupper unit 14. That is, thechip tray 11 is vertically held by means of theflanges 34 and thesmall projections 40 of thelock elements 36. This prevents the vertical movement of thechip tray 11. Thus, it is possible to securely store thechip tray 11 in thestorage 26 of thestorage tray 12 while maintaining the vertically connected state of theupper unit 14 and thelower unit 15. - Similarly, the
other chip trays 11 holding the chips C are stored in theother storages 26 of thestorage tray 12; thus, it is possible to realize the fully loaded state of thehousing 10 as shown inFIG. 1 . - Similar to the
lower unit 15, a plurality of chips C can be held by means of theupper unit 14. The chips C held in theupper unit 14 are covered with thelower unit 15 when twohousings 10 are vertically combined together as shown inFIG. 10 . That is, when onehousing 10 in which the chips C are held in theupper unit 14 is vertically combined with and covered with theother housing 10, thesecond projections 19 of thelower unit 15 of theother housing 10 are precisely positioned just above thechips 10 held in theupper unit 14 of onehousing 10. - In order to extract the
chips 10 from thechip tray 11 held in thestorage 26 of thestorage tray 12 of thehousing 10, an external force is compulsorily applied to thechip tray 11 so as to release the engagement between thechip tray 11 and thelock elements 36, thus extracting thechip tray 11 from the opening of the inlet/outlet recess 32 of thestorage 26. Then, theupper unit 14 is separated from thelower unit 15 so as to expose the chips C, which can be thus extracted individually. - As described above, the present embodiment is designed such that the chips C are held between the
upper unit 14 and thelower unit 15. This makes it possible to collectively transport a plurality ofchip trays 11 held by thestorage tray 12, wherein it is possible to prevent the chips C from being unexpectedly shifted in position and from falling off during transportation. - In addition, it is possible to prevent the vertical movement of the
chip tray 11 by means of theflanges 34 of thestorage 26 and thelock elements 36. Thechip tray 11 can be easily reversed and extracted from thestorage 26 by reversing thestorage tray 12. This makes it possible to speedily perform testing such as electrification inspection with respect to both sides of the chips C. - When a plurality of
housings 10 are vertically combined together, the chips C held by theupper unit 14 of onehousing 10 are covered with thelower unit 15 of theother housing 10; hence, it is possible to reliably hold the chips C. - The present invention is not necessarily limited by the present embodiment; hence, the present invention can be modified in a variety of ways in terms of the shapes, positions, and directions of the aforementioned components and parts without departing from the scope of the invention defined by the appended claims.
- For example, it is possible to increase or decrease the number of
storages 26 formed in thestorage tray 12 as long as eachstorage 26 is designed to store at least onechip tray 11. In order to improve visual recognition, it is possible to apply different colors to thechip tray 11 and thestorage tray 12. This makes it possible to smoothly attach thechip tray 11 to thestorage tray 12 and to smoothly detach thechip tray 11 from thestorage tray 12. Of course, it is possible to apply various design changes to theupper unit 14 and thelower unit 15 in accordance with dimensions of the chips C and the number of chips C. - In addition, it is possible to appropriately change the number of
lock elements 36 and the positions of thelock elements 36 as long as the vertical movement of thechip trays 11 held in thestorage tray 26 can be reliably secured. - The
lock elements 36 are not necessarily designed so as to havesmall projections 40 at the upper ends thereof. That is, thelock elements 36 can be modified in such a way that thesmall projections 40 are formed at both of the upper ends and lower ends of thelock elements 36. In this modification, thesmall projections 40 formed at the upper ends and lower ends of thelock elements 36 are engaged with theupper unit 14 and thelower unit 15 respectively. This guarantees a stable storage condition. In addition, even when only theupper unit 14 is held in thestorage 26, it is possible to reliably establish the engagement between theupper unit 14 and thesmall projections 40 of thelock elements 36, thus preventing the vertical movement of theupper unit 14.
